Notifications troubleshooting for Android

If you're having trouble with push notifications, please follow these steps to make sure you have set up everything correctly.

Latest version

Make sure you are using the latest version of the Smartsupp app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cz.dactylgroup.smartsupp.android&hl=en&gl=US

Online

Check that you're set as online. If you're offline you won't get any notifications. You can do this from your Profile.

Notification Settings in Smartsupp

In the Smartsupp mobile app go to Settings -> Notifications. Check that you have enabled push notifications for chat and optionally push notifications for incoming visitors

Allow notifications

Allow notification in mobile settings. 

  • Go to Setting
  • Search Smartsupp application
  • Select notifications
  • And allow notifications for Smartsupp

Pure Android

Android > 5 & Android ≤7

Android ≥ 8

Samsung

Android > 5 & Android ≤ 7

Android ≥ 8

Allow using app in background (Android 8 and higher)

  • Go to Settings
  • Search Smartsupp application
  • Select background restriction
  • Allow using application in background

Default Android

Samsung

Grant an exemption for battery optimization (Android 8 and higher)

  • Go to Settings
  • Search Smartsupp application
  • Select Battery
  • Search Smartsupp in battery optimization list
  • And select Don’t optimize

Huawei & Honor Mobile 

  1. Go to Settings -> Advanced settings -> Battery manager -> Protected apps, then find the app you want to see notifications from (Smartsupp app), and protect it. This is "whitelisting" the app so Huawei's overeager software doesn't shut it down for no reason.
  2. Go to Settings -> Apps -> Advanced -> Ignore battery optimizations, then find the app (Smartsupp) and ignore it. Don't be tricked by the misleading wording, "ignoring" the app actually means to let it run, because you're telling the battery optimization function to "ignore" that app.
  3. Go to Settings -> Notification panel & status bar -> Notification centre, find the app (Smartsupp), then activate "allow notifications" and also "priority display". You have to activate the priority part too to make sure you get notifications.
